Grab the broom of anger and drive off the beast of fear.

The line urges an active, even combative emotional strategy: rather than being paralyzed by fear, one can harness anger as a tool to sweep fear away. The metaphor of a “broom” suggests anger can be instrumental—something you pick up, use, and put down—while fear is figured as a “beast,” a menacing presence that must be driven out. Read this way, the quote valorizes agency and self-defense, especially in situations where fear functions as social control. It also implies a hierarchy of emotions: anger, though often condemned, may be morally or psychologically useful when it catalyzes action against intimidation.
